SelectionBanterKarstToTibbsThree
Guess the blood struggles to get all the way up to ‘is brain, eh? eh?
Trial Run
‘Ello rookie! Found a few markers, did ya? Apparently the Boss sees somethin’ in you, but we won’t know for sure ‘til you’re on the wrong side of a lance. I’m Karst, and there’s not a lock in this world that I can’t open. All you have to do is make sure I live long enough to open ‘em. Adiyah’ll get us to the job, and I’ll show ya the ropes. Don’t get tangled in ‘em, ‘cause it ain’t my job to cut you free.
KarstEnterArea
First things first; Client wants us to find an urn. Reckons the mark has it locked up. Thing is, it’s pretty suspicious if that’s the only thing that goes missing. Not really our problem, but taking heat off the client makes us look good, and we get to keep whatever else we find. Get where I’m going with this?
KarstFirstDoor
I’ll pick any locks that get in our way. You keep me alive, yeah?
KarstDoorOpen
Hear that? We ain’t alone. Place is crawling with guards. You’re here to make sure they don’t kill us both.
KarstAlertRaised
Consider your actions, yeah? We don’t want too much attention.
KarstNearObjective
Urn’s on the other side of this door. Grab it so we can get out of here.
KarstObjectiveObtained
Perfe—… Wait, hear that? We’ve been made. Grab what ya can and head out.
KarstAfterAlert
Back the way we came, rookie!
KarstAfterExit
We’re still breathin, rook, so you ain’t done half bad. Take that urn to Faustus, yeah? He’ll sort you out.
Introduction
I’m Karst. Rather than waste my youth readin’, I put that time to better use. Now I can pick just about any lock you’re likely to come across.
The Boss
A man of style, the Boss. A thief of course wants to be rich and live a life of luxury, but once you hit a certain point of wealth, I imagine you might be motivated by other things. Apparently, the Boss was living very comfortably indeed, but felt the need to challenge himself. He entered the First Bank of Theopolis in the middle of the day, entered the vault, and just started… movin’ stuff around. Octavius family fortunes into the Maxius deposit box, Avarius riches split across every small safe, each of which he popped open as if there weren’t even a lock on ‘em. Mixing all the money up like it were caught in the tides. Then he goes and finds the records of deposits and withdrawals, and sets ‘em on fire. Walks out like nothing happened. Well, of course the bank puts the fire out, but the records are gone. So they notify all the big customers, telling them to come in with their copy of the deposit slips… and wouldn’t you know it, they’re gone too. No bloody idea how he pulled it off. ‘Course, the bank and all the clients will deny it ever happened. Be foolish not to.
Stolen Lockpicks
Got my contract, do ya? Ran with some low-life criminal scum in the back alleys of Oriath in my younger days. Real good blokes. Loyal to the last, or so I thought. Right before I was exiled, they beat me half to death and took off with my finest lock picks. If I’d had ‘em when the Law came for me, I probably wouldn’t be here, so in a sense, I ‘spose I should be thankful, eh? Well I’m not. I want those picks back, and I spent a lot of markers to find out where they went. Now I know, and you’re gonna help me get ‘em.
Stolen Lockpicks_2
Strange. I thought having these picks back would make me feel whole again, but… Well, it’s not your problem, rookie. Not yet.
Karst’s Revenge
Been good having my old picks back. Real good. Just not good enough. It’s like there’s a lock inside me, and not even my beautiful antique picks can open it. But I been thinkin’ about it long and hard, and I reckon I know what might. Revenge. One of me old crew recently got out of the game. Livin’ a life of luxury now while everyone around him is suffering and strugglin’ just to survive. That should’ve been my life, but he took it from me when he took my picks. I want to send him, and the rest of my old crew, a message. So, rather than take something, we’re going to leave something. Something that’ll put the fear of Sin into the lot of ‘em.
Karst’s Revenge_2
Bet you’re wondering what happens now, eh? Interesting little toxin we left. Slowly fills the air, then the lungs. Never leaves the body. Just keeps building up. First you start feeling light headed. Then you start hearing things, start seeing things. Start getting paranoid. A day or two later, you feel tingly. The tingling turns to pain, and the pain keeps building until your heart just stops beating. I’d wash your hands if I was you.
Credit Where Credit’s Due
Word of our last job has started gettin’ round. Unfortunately, all the credit is goin’ to an old rival of ours. That don’t sit right with me. It’s one thing to steal a man’s property, but to steal a man’s hard work? No, I ain’t gonna let that stand. So we’re going to leave a little present at my ol’ rival’s abode. One of my prized lockpicks, dipped in the very same toxin.
Credit Where Credit’s Due_2
You know what, rookie? I do believe I feel whole again. It’s only a matter of time ‘til that old rival of mine suffers the same fate as my traitorous crewmate. With both the bastards dead, and my pick the only common thread, the message is crystal clear: Don’t steal from a thief.
IntroductionKarstToHuck

KarstVaultcrackingThree

KarstVaultcrackingFour
Curiosity always gets the better of me…
KarstVaultcrackingFive
Love the smell of hot metal.
KarstVaultcrackingSix
The more they try to keep me out, the more I want to get in.
KarstBusyOne
Bit preoccupied.
KarstBusyTwo
You’ll have to wait.
KarstBusyThree
Got my hands full here.
KarstBusyFour
You blind? I’m busy.
KarstBusyFive
Trying to concentrate on something else.
KarstInterruptedOne

KarstCombatStartFive
We got company.
KarstCombatStartSix
Incoming.
KarstCombatEndOne
Too easy.
KarstCombatEndTwo
Yeah. Yeeaaaah!
KarstCombatEndThree
Wasn’t worth it, was it?
KarstCombatEndFour
Should’ve stayed out of it.
KarstCombatEndFive
I got the best of ya.
KarstLootOne
If you don’t want it, I’ll take it.
KarstLootTwo
You sure you want that?
KarstLootThree
Ehh, reckon I’ll find something better.
KarstLootFour
Good. You take that.
KarstLootFive
Plenty more where that came from, I reckon.
KarstAlertLevelOne
Shh! Shut it.
KarstAlertLevelTwo
Keep it down, or else.
KarstAlertLevelThree
You trying to get us caught?
KarstAlertLevelFour
Might need to bail soon.
KarstAlarmOne
Oh boy, this is gonna get messy.
KarstAlarmTwo
Don’t fail me now, rookie.
KarstAlarmThree
Let’s make our escape.
KarstSurpriseAlarmOne
Eh?! We gotta move! Now!
KarstSurpriseAlarmTwo
You hear that? That’s your fault.
KarstSurpriseAlarmThree
Great, now the whole bloody world’s coming after us.

KarstFinalRoomTwo
Got eyes on the prize.
KarstFinalRoomThree
Real close now. Real close.
KarstFinalRoomFour
Almost there. Don’t screw it up.
KarstFinalRoomFive
I think this is what we’re here for.
KarstObjectiveOne
Tuck it away somewhere safe. We gotta move quick.
KarstObjectiveTwo
Aw, I wanted to hold it. Fine. Whatever. Let’s just go.
KarstObjectiveThree
Is it just me or is this as good as it gets?
KarstObjectiveFour
Job done, right? Out we go.
KarstEntryBanterOne
Always get nostalgic before a job. Almost miss me ol’ crew.
KarstEntryBanterTwo
Reckon I’ll have a night out with the lads after this one. Can’t remember the last time I blacked out.
KarstEntryBanterThree
You’re pretty quiet, eh Exile? … Yeah, you’re pretty quiet. Good quality in a thief.
KarstEntryBanterFour
If it starts gettin’ hairy in there, you can handle yourself, yeah?
KarstEntryBanterFive
Things start going south in there, don’t expect me to save you.
KarstExitBanterOne
He does it again! Can anyone stop him! I sure bloody hope not.
KarstExitBanterTwo
And with that, the rookie was forever indebted to the mighty Karst!
KarstExitBanterThree
Hope you didn’t leave anything down there rook! We ain’t going back!
KarstExitBanterFour
Ahh, my lovely Adiyah! How about a celebratory drink, on me.
KarstExitBanterFive
This one may’ve taken a few weeks off my life, but it was bloody worth it.
KarstLockPickLoudOne
On it!
KarstLockPickLoudTwo
Yeah, I know!
KarstLockPickLoudThree
Easy!

KarstPerceptionLoudFive
Horrible time to just be standing ‘round!
KarstPerceptionLoudSix
Something… Something… Gotta be something.
KarstVaultcrackingLoudOne
Easy does it!
KarstVaultcrackingLoudTwo
Nothing motivates like a little pressure!
KarstVaultcrackingLoudThree
Trying to get us killed!?
KarstVaultcrackingLoudFour
Better lead to an escape hatch!
KarstVaultcrackingLoudFive
Easier without guards after us!
KarstVaultcrackingLoudSix
Normally enjoy this process!
KarstBusyLoudOne
Stop ordering me around!
KarstBusyLoudTwo
One thing at a time!
KarstBusyLoudThree
Can’t do it all at once!
KarstBusyLoudFour
Make up your mind!
KarstBusyLoudFive
You get hit in the head?! I’m busy!
KarstInterruptedLoudOne
Lend a hand, rookie!
KarstInterruptedLoudTwo

ExitBanterKarstToNenet
See that, Nenet? See what you’re missin’ out on?
ExitBanterKarstToNiles
Make way, Adiyah. Karst needs to pray at the altar of beer.
